$25.50 retail, after discount. Recently purchased from a retailer that stores its wines at a consistent 62 degrees, so this wine had been sitting at that temp (and low humidity) for about nine years, since its release... Hmmm. Cork was perfect. Bright color showing only minimal signs of age - I would never have guessed this was a ten+ year old wine. Fresh, vigorous nose of petrol, minerals, lime and lip-smacking green apple. Just the right amount of tart acid balances this delicious dry Riesling out nicely. I just can't get enough of this one... Note to self: buy more dry Riesling.
